The gilded reliquary from 1264 in the presbytery is the reason to visit: you see the goldsmithing up close in the Romanesque interior, not behind a museum display case.

A three-aisled Romanesque basilica from the turn of the 11th and 13th centuries, located at Suitbertus-Stiftsplatz in the historic center of Kaiserswerth. The gilded reliquary of St. Suitbert from 1264, considered one of the most valuable works of Rhenish goldsmithery, is kept in the chancel.
